Objective My goal is to educate the future of our nation by allowing them an opportunity to advance their future endeavors through lessons of hard work and perseverance. Throughout my past experiences, I have developed various different traits that will make me the perfect applicant to hire! I received the Principal’s Leadership award out of the entire senior class (over 400 students) showing that I do not just say I am a great leader, I prove it. In my work experiences I have developed great customer service and teamwork skills to ensure guest satisfaction. Education to me is more than just reiterating information in a class; it is the ability to help my students achieve their future goals.
